About

HIRC finances, develops, and manages properties. HIRC is a vertically integrated company that has the ability to execute the entire development process. We have developed strong relationships built over 30 years of experience as developers, financiers, and community activists.

Current Hollywood development projects have a vast need to raise capital amounting to billions of dollars and potential construction values sit dormant today. Alternative sources of capital are essential in reawakening construction.

HIRC fills this void by introducing EB-5 investors who are looking for a quick pathway to U.S. citizenship via the placement of their personal capital into promising projects that will create the required amount of jobs for USCIS green card approval.
